This Unassuming California Restaurant Near A Truck Stop Was Just Named America’s Best Indian Restaurant Of 2026

The best Indian restaurant in America, according to Yelp’s 2026 ranking, sits next to a truck stop. Not a downtown dining room. A spot right off Interstate 5. It beat every other Indian restaurant in the country for the No. 1 spot. The ranking leaned on review volume and ratings, and this place has piled up hundreds of five-star reviews.

One Of California’s Most Talked-About Restaurants Is Back In A Stunning Historic Hotel

A pie made with rose petals, hibiscus gelée, and a pretzel crust has a new home. It moved into a hotel built on an old movie studio backlot. That pie comes from a restaurant named after a chef’s daughter and his grandmother. I love that there’s a little more to the story than a menu.

13 Changes In-N-Out Burger Needs To Make

I have a few beefs with In-N-Out Burger (bun intended), but I, like so many with ties to California, grew up eating here. Founded in Baldwin Park in 1948, the fast-food chain feels like it's woven into the fingerprint of the Golden State at this point. And with generations of my mom's side born and raised in Southern California, it should be no surprise that it was a family tradition to eat at In-N-Out when we were visiting our loved ones. With these meals marking our gatherings, reunions, and Disneyland trips with everybody, In-N-Out Burger has never just felt like some random fast-food joint to me. It feels personal.

November 12, 2026 // Franchising.com // YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio — Handel’s Ice Cream will celebrate the opening of its 200th location in Camarillo, California, on Nov. 12. The milestone comes during a record year of expansion for the 81-year-old ice cream brand, which has opened more new parlors in 2026 than in any previous year. Despite persistent inflation and uncertain consumer confidence, Handel’s continues to grow through major multi-unit development agreements and reinvestment from existing franchise owners.

Then there’s a vegetarian kitchen in a polished, modern room making crunchy sides meant to mimic duck skin. I have to give that one credit for pure creativity.
